Bound For Home (Tyler Cunningham Shorts) - Plot & Excerpts
You’ve got a big fucking problem unless you can turn my frown upside-down in the next few minutes. Tell me everything that you know about dead birds, starting … now.” John said all of this casually, but punctuated it by slamming a paring knife that he must have grabbed from my sink down on the coffee table between us. “I actually know a lot about dead birds … the reasons that they die varies tremendously, as does the possible impact their deaths can have on mankind. There were mass die-offs of flamingos in two lakes in Kenya a few years ago, that were attributed to pesticide/fertilizer misuse/overuse … Lake Begoria and Lake Nakuru … tourism is a big deal in Kenya’s Rift Valley, which is probably the only reason that anything was done about it. More recently, there has been some concern in the scientific community about the possibility of a nasty variant of Avian Bird Flu jumping species and becoming a human pandemic.” I started to root around the nooks and crannies of my still-sleepy head for more dead bird facts, when I noticed his face doing the thing that humans do when they are displeased and impatient.
